please address an issue where street ball to 21 is the only multiplayer online mode you have. Just give us 5 on 5 'nba rules' in some way, even if it's with real nba players, please and thankya.

I realize this is a big ask, but Live is only fun online and I am already tired of 21.

Could be a fluke, but I noticed a significant increase in foul calling in the two The One NBA games I played after the update. A definite improvement.

are any of you guys having frame rate issues??? I just fired up a play now game N.o. vs PHX(Home) and I had some slowdown and stuttering happen. I might need to hard reset my xbox.

I watched the ai play cavs/warriors 2 times to see if anything would be different, but so far I see the same issues. Curry went 4/16 in one game since instead of shooting, he kept taking contested layups. Most shots I've seen were either wide open 3's when the warriors doubled teamed Lebron in the paint, or shots late in the shot clock since the ai takes too long to get into their offense on nearly every possession.

If the ai can't get to the paint, they will shoot the ball late in the shot clock as a last resort. This is why every team feels the same in this game. And I wonder if the ai is coded not to take 'guarded' shots, even though a lot of the 'bad' shots in this game are good shots in the nba. That would explain why I just seen Curry open coming off a screen, drive to the rim and brick another layup instead of shooting the ball.

As someone who plays Live 18 almost every day I can say this patch is a big change.

Had to lower the speed from 75 to 55 as everything is way faster now. Passing is improved and faster and overall responsiviness is great now. But me personally I liked the old "delayed" shooting better. I think it had an organic feel to it and now its just 2K like with a the way you have to hold the shooting buittong for just a millisecond . I would prefer something in between the old and the new shooting. But overall great patch which improves the game significantly.

I wish Live can remove some of their ancient animations and get some brand new ones in. For example, the two hands over head pass is about 15 years old, I've seen that animation in Live 03. And to be honest, you rarely see  professional  basketball players pass the ball like that, that's a very amateur move. 

Also please change the running/dribbling  animation, now it looks like everyone had hard plaster fixed on their knees that the knees don't even bend or stretch in anyway.

Probably a preview program issue

Just played a game and I don’t notice much difference other than the shot meter which is faster and overly sensitive. I fired up two quick shots when I was trying to pump fake. Not a fan of this change tbh.

One thing that still annoys me is how on a basic set my defensive matchups get confused and I will have a big guarding a small player. This happens too much. On fast breaks I understand but not basic half court sets. Your defensive assignment shouldn’t get messed up.

Same thing happened to me when I tried to pump fake it also seems like there is a delay when I try to use dribble moves almost like the commands aren't registering.

When that happens if you can pull it off because sometimes I get burned take the big that has the bad match up and drop him down in the paint next to his original assignment the guard should run to the guard he should be guarding. I have done it a couple of times. The reason I say if you can pull it off at times I'll move and the big will kick it back out and the guard will shoot the 3. It's a gamble but it works sometime. Yes it is annoying

Played one game last night looks like they toned down the blocks THANK YOU. the nets took a lot of mid range shots and by a lot I mean more than was happening in the past but not a whole lot. They still drove and shot 3s but I did notice one thing I haven't seen. A player actually drove and stopped to shoot a mid range shot I was surprised. Lots of fouls called. I want more. We need players in foul trouble. At this point it's just game play mechanics now I'm still seeing lots of Contact and no foul called but that is NBA Live so I'll deal with it. As long as there are more fouls and they toned down then blocks thank goodness I'm good.

I've been seeing midrange shots and pullups since day one.

As I keep saying, this game is dynamic and can depend on how you defend the CPU.

Is anyone else getting disconnected with an error code in online head to head after the patch? It happened to me 6 times In a row
